You’re either in favor of freedom of the press and not throwing journalists into jail for uncovering things governments want to keep secret, or you’re not.

If Assange hadn’t squatted in that embassy, he’d probably be out by now.
In any case, he lacks credibility as a champion for journalism when he won’t confront the leaders who murder journalists.
